How It Works

A custom cat portrait from your photo

Three steps, about 2–3 days, and a digital pet portrait you can print as large as your wall allows.

  1. I

    Upload a clear photo of your cat

    Any good daylight photo works. We build your custom pet portrait from your photo — no studio session, no stress for your cat.

  2. II

    Choose your vintage scene

    Pick a collection above and we place your cat into it, matching coat, markings, eye color and that particular look only they do.

  3. III

    We finish it by hand and deliver

    Every scene starts as original hand-painted artwork. AI-assisted compositing places your cat into it, then an artist hand-retouches the markings, colors and details in Photoshop and personally approves your digital pet portrait before your high-res files arrive, ready to print.

Real Transformations

See the difference

From an ordinary phone photo to a piece of art you'll keep forever.

Gifts for Cat Lovers

The perfect gift for a cat lover

For the cat lover in your life — or for yourself — a custom portrait is the rare gift that never gets re-gifted. It's their cat, painted with real care, in a scene that fits their personality perfectly.

Birthdays, holidays, gotcha days, or just because — a custom cat portrait is a cozy, one-of-a-kind keepsake that celebrates the bond between a person and their cat. The kind of gift that gets hung in a favorite spot and smiled at every single day.
